SideKick Low-Pro

The low profile sample chamber gives you unprecedented optical access to your sample by removing the clutter from your optical table. This keeps your beam heights low to improve stability.

Despite the small form factor, there are three side panels to allow dozens of DC, fibers, or RF connections.

Our unique vacuum design makes UHV vacuum levels possible with the simplicity of O-rings. These ultra-high vacuum levels keep your sample and environment clean and greatly extend operation times. O-rings make the sample changeouts simple and quick.

The mechanical excitation from the cryocooler and vacuum pumps is moved off the table by using the proprietary SideKick tower mounted to the floor next to the table. Your optical table still floats to isolate your entire experimental components!
